An opinion piece published yesterday in the #BillingsGazette explores #CodyRoberts ' #torture of a young female #wolf in Daniel, #Wyoming. By now, most of you have heard the news or seen the disturbing photos and videos. We remain disgusted by the #cruelty, as does our partner and op-ed author #JeffEwelt.
In his op-ed, Jeff Ewelt, the Executive Director of #ZooMontana and a partner of The #RelistWolves Campaign,
Imagine, hearing the noise of an engine far away. You and your #pack are on edge as the engine revs closer. You begin to run, but you can't outrun a #hunter who hits you with his snowmobile.
What happened next, I can't even ask you to imagine. This poor #GrayWolf was captured, red duct tape wrapped tightly around her snout. She was thrown into a strange car, driven to her soon-to-be killer's home.
But there's another stop: She was taken to a #bar in #Wyoming,
"In view of the circumstances surrounding Eastman's misconduct & balancing the aggravation & mitigation, the court recommends that #Eastman be #disbarred," State #Bar Court Judge Yvette D. Roland said in Wed's filling.
Investigators for the #California bar said #JohnEastman made "demonstrably false & misleading statements" w/the memos he drafted that became the framework for the "legal strategies" aimed at having then-VP #MikePence interfere w/the certification of the 2020 election.
#Mcafee: You're saying if a rep of the State, the lead DA, says something untruthful on the record, that has to be actively policed by the court? Generally we send it down the street to the #Bar.

They're supposed to be disinterested. They gave you untruthful testimony based on Yeartie testimony & Bradley texts.
#FaniWillis walked unaccompanied through the front door of a #FultonCounty courtroom on Thurs afternoon in a bright magenta dress & announced she was ready to testify. She was interrupting her lawyer, who at that very moment was trying to convince a judge that she should not have to testify at all.
A number of lawyers have referred to “Rule 1.6” during the hearing. That's a citation from #bar association rules that relates to lawyers keeping info received from clients #confidential. But Judge Scott #McAfee said this morning that he would direct witnesses to “be responsive to any questioning that may be covered by Rule 1.6” because it was not equal to #AttorneyClientPrivilege.
Folks promoting Bluesky on the fediverse is like the three little pigs doing public relations for the big bad wolf.
But, hey, clearly some folks still haven’t gotten the message that VC and billionaires are bad and that non-corporate spaces have to be protected from corporate ones.
I guess something has to keep the folks who write “what went wrong/if only we’d known” articles in business.
